Many experts believe that it was referred to as a training vessel in order to cover the real goal of the vessel. The class is five times larger than the Jamaran, which means it is at least 5,500 tons and 7,000-7,500 tons full. A model which appeared in November 2014 shows a radar above the destroyer.[5]
